Synopsis

After a mysterious phone call, he receives bad news from his native England which sends him back after 17 years’ absence. And now the evil secrets he’s kept under tight control for two decades begin to unravel.

On his return home, he is forced to share an embarrassing truth with total strangers - and confront the faith he turned his back on.

A wounded Jack opens his heart to a boy in dire need of what only the trainer can offer, and discovers a talent for healing more than horses.

RIDING OUT THE TEMPEST

Jack suspects he may be atoning for something he didn’t do when his ex-girlfriend arrives from England, hoping to re-kindle their romance.

Then Joe, the teenager whom he helped, comes back for a visit and Jack’s world spins into an emotional turbulence which he is powerless to control.

All Jack ever wants to do is train horses – but once again, God has other plans for him.

RIDING OUT THE ROUGH

Jack is troubled by startling revelations about Joe, the teenager to whom he has become both a mentor and father figure.

Leaked information and another unwelcome visit from his ex-girlfriend now threaten to destroy any hopes the horse trainer has of winning over Laura, Joe’s widowed mother.

Jack is forced to choose between coming clean to Laura about his past, or trying to enter into a relationship with her based on a lie. She will despise him if he tells her the truth, but telling a falsehood runs contrary to his principles.

Both roads will be rough, but which one will Jack take? And where will it lead?
